Midlife Crisis

Post by SaintKerrigan »

So I am at the stage where things fall apart for me strategy-wise no matter which of the three races I play. (In other words, I really suck.) Thus, I decided to throw this thread up and ask for tips from other players on ways I can improve my play. I'll consider anything, even basic suggestions!

Well, I only play as terran and I suck at it, but I could give a few basic tips.

Build LOTS of workers (at least 30, better more) on each mineral area. As Terran, summon MULES as much as you can. You need a good income, but don't float minerals. If you float minerals, build more Barracks and units, or go for upgrades and research.

Keep scouting. Don't get caught in the dark. Maybe if the oppurtunity presents itself, try a proxy rush.

As Zerg, spread your creep. You want creep all across the map, even right next to your opponents base. Wall them in. Dont forget you have vision everywhere you have creep.
As Protoss, Warp In is essential. You need to be able to get some units at that cruicial moment. Don't forget to use Chrono Boost too.

One last note, build farms a lot. My biggest fallback is forgetting my Supply Depots.

You probably already knew all of this, but I'm not exactly the best player in the world =P

Yeah.. Build a bunch of drones, and send them to the enemy base, it'll work!
